GENERAL SAFETY (cont.)
ALWAYS keep the work area clean, well lit, and organized. DO NOT work in an area that has
slippery floor surfaces from debris, grease, and wax.
CAUTION! ALWAYS unplug the machine from the electrical receptacle when making
adjustments, changing parts or performing any maintenance.
AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Make sure that the power switch is in the “OFF” position before
plugging in the power cord to the electrical receptacle.
WARNING! AVOID a dangerous working environment. DO NOT use electrical tools in a damp
environment or expose them to rain or moisture.
WARNING! CHILDPROOF THE WORKSHOP AREA by removing switch keys, unplugging
tools from the electrical receptacles, and using padlocks.
CAUTION! DO NOT use electrical tools in the presence of flammable liquids or gasses.
DO NOT FORCE the machine to perform an operation for which it was not designed. It will do a
safer and higher quality job by only performing operations for which the machine was intended.
WARNING! DO NOT stand on a machine. Serious injury could result if it tips over or you
accidentally contact any moving part.
DO NOT store anything above or near the machine.
WARNING! DO NOT operate any machine or tool if under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or
medication.
EACH AND EVERY time, check for damaged parts prior to using any machine. Carefully check all
guards to see that they operate properly, are not damaged, and perform their intended functions.
Check for alignment, binding or breakage of all moving parts. Any guard or other part that is
damaged should be immediately repaired or replaced.
WARNING! Ground all machines. If any machine is supplied with a 3-prong plug, it must be
plugged into a 3-contact electrical receptacle. The third prong is used to ground the tool and
provide protection against accidental electric shock. DO NOT remove the third prong.
CAUTION! Keep visitors and children away from any machine. DO NOT permit people to be in
the immediate work area, especially when the machine is operating.
